Columbia man arrested with gun

Columbia Police Officers responded to the 100 Block of Locust Street in Columbia at 1:21 a.m. this morning for the report of a man with a gun.
Police said they encountered  Gordon “Nook” Lively, 31, was under the influence of alcohol and was in possession of a handgun in the area of the Lazy K Lounge, which is located at 137-141 Locust Street in Columbia. Patrons of the Lazy K Lounge stated that Lively told them he had the gun, and showed it to at least one person.

Upon arrival, Police encountered Lively, who was sitting in a basement stairwell to the front of the Lazy K Lounge. Lively was in possession of an open can of Keystone Light beer, and a loaded Kel-Tec model P3AT .380 caliber handgun was recovered from Lively’s waistband. This handgun was not registered to Lively, nor did Lively have a valid license to carry firearms.

Lively was taken into custody and transported to the Columbia Police Department. While at the Police Department, Lively grew increasingly agitated towards Police, and specifically threatened to kill Officer Matthew Leddy with a firearm once he gets released from prison.
Officer Brent Keyser charged Lively with Persons not to possess, use, manufacture, control, sell or transfer firearms; Firearms not to be carried without a license; Terroristic Threats; and Open Container in Public Prohibited (Columbia Borough Ordinance).
Lively was transported to Lancaster County Central Booking for Arraignment prior to being incarcerated in Lancaster County Prison.
